Miss Granola Universe is the definitive biography of a woman coming of age in the 1970s, one who embraces social reform, the renaissance of the arts and humanism. A natural born artist and gifted student, the author tells her story of growth and survival through personal memoirs about love, adventure, learning, and courage. By journaling, including original photos and illustrations, she paints the landscape of the era. The text is rich in remembrances of the music and personalities who influenced the "love generation." Living alone and being self supporting, she is like many women who cannot grasp their intrinsic value and physical attractiveness in a society that sends contradictory messages and discriminates despite claims of equality. After achieving a Master of Arts degree from a prestigious university, she attains success in a "new age" occupation. At the same time, she becomes progressively more sick from alcohol and drug abuse, and eventually loses everything she worked for. Join the author as she puts everything on the line to recover her well-being, and regain the ability to contribute her knowledge and creative gifts. After experiencing the miracle of sobriety, she is blindsided by an undiagnosed neurological illness that threatens to leave her paralyzed or take her life. Validate your resources and celebrate life's meaning, as you read how she tenaciously unravels the deadly and mysterious condition. This book is dedicated to those on the fringe, the forgotten, and the disavowed of our society who suffer in silent despair. There is hope. You are not alone.
